Bombshell report exposing FISA abuse could lead to the removal of senior government officials
Sara A. Carter ^

Posted on 01/18/2018 4:10:11 PM PST by springwater13

A review of a classified document outlining what is described as extensive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act abuse was made available to all House members Thursday and the revelations could lead to the removal of senior officials in the FBI and Department of Justice, several sources with knowledge of the document stated. These sources say the report is “explosive,” stating they would not be surprised if it leads to the end of Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel investigation into President Trump and his associates.

The House Intelligence Committee passed the motion along party lines Thursday to make the classified report alleging extensive ‘FISA Abuse’ related to the controversial dossier available to all House members. The report contains information regarding the dossier that alleges President Trump and members of his team colluded with the Russians in the 2016 presidential election. Some members of the House viewed the document in a secure room Thursday.

But POTUS can declassify anything where in some cases only the originator can declassify. As with issue there maybe certain exceptions even for POTUS on declassifying, but he does have VERY BROAD POWERS with regard to classified information.

One of the members of Congress who commented after the newspaper’s revelations was Sen. James Risch, R-Idaho. According to CNN, he told reporters, "The minute the president speaks about it to someone, he has the ability to declassify anything at any time without any process."

"The majority ruling in the 1988 Supreme Court case Department of Navy vs. Egan -- which addressed the legal recourse of a Navy employee who had been denied a security clearance -- addresses this line of authority.

"The President, after all, is the ‘Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States’" according to Article II of the Constitution, the court’s majority wrote. "His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security ... flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in the President, and exists quite apart from any explicit congressional grant."

Post #16 posts the photo that shows how hopeless all this talk is. Sessions is Not In Session. His brain, his will, his morality, his courage, his patriotism, his sense of justice, his sense of honor... all gone... up in smoke... as if someone has zapped him with some kind of Walking Death Ray. He’s a zombie. A Walking Dead. WTF is with Trump keeping a corpse for AG??? (Oh wait, I forgot. He is doing something. Fighting a fantastically futile rear-guard action against pot! You go, boy! You keep those priorities right up there in never-never land.)

Obama’s and Clintons are preparing to leave. Obama’s to Kenya. Bill to Orgy Island, and Hillary and Chelsea to some obscure place in the South Pacific. Maybe Pitcairn Island so they can hobnob with the descendants of Fletcher Christian.

Forget “firing” them; take them outside and hang, draw, and quarter them, cut off their heads, stick ‘em on a pike, and then cement the pikes into the ground on the Mall!

Nobody is going to jail and nobody will be punished. Call me pessimistic.

I'll call you realistic.

“it will be tough for a lot of people to see this and especially the media, which has been attempting to deemphasize the dossier. It’s going to punch a hole in their collusion narrative.”

Yep. Been hearing this kind of thing for months and months now. At this point, I will only believe it when I see it.

FOR EIGHT LONG YEARS Odunga was busy using every agency at his disposal to GET DIRT ON EVERYONE HE POSSIBLY COULD, including Chief Justice John Roberts. See how that worked out on that Obamacare decision? Odunga was a DIRT COLLECTOR and had every member of SCOTUS, Congress, etc., blackmailed with said DIRT to fall in line OR ELSE.

The major criminals are Obama, Jarrett, Brennan, Comey, Clapper, Lerner and everyone else who partook in Odunga's quest to ILLEGALLY spy on people's emails, phone calls, etc., to acquire as much BRIBERY DIRT as possible!

Gaetz hasn’t been wrong yet, and already deserves a medal. If Rosentein is finally proven dirty, then Mueller is next. Hopefully Gaetz has this right.


Conspiracy to commit sedition but undermining aduly elected government...desperate times call for desperate measures as they are all implicated in the Uranium One cover up.
